Acarpenter builds an exterior house wall with a layer of wood 3.0 cm thick on the outside and a layer of styrofoam insulation 2.4 cm thick on the inside wall surface. the wood has k=0.080w/(m? k), and the styrofoam has k= 0.010 w/(m? k). the interior surface temperature is 20.0 ? c , and the exterior surface temperature is -13.0 ? c

a.) what is the temperature at the plane where the wood meets the styrofoam? celsius
b.) what is the rate of heat flow per square meter through this wall? /m^2

Because air contracts as it cools, the air pressure inside a freezer is typically lower than on the outside. why do ice cubes inside a freezer tend to shrink over time? a. the ice dissolves oxygen from the air, forming a denser crystalline matrix.b. the ice reacts chemically with carbon dioxide in the air, forming gaseous carbon compounds.c. the ice melts, and then the liquid freezes as ice crystals on the bottom of the freezer.d. the ice sublimes, and then the water vapor deposits as ice crystals on the sides of the freezer.
